** In "You Made Me!", Lemongrab is skulking around in the dark. Princess Bubblegum tries to coax some information out of him, and he eventually shouts: "I AM THE EARL OF NOTHING!"

Added DiffLines:
* In ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'', Mr. Freeze, having returned to his villainous ways following an attempted return to a normal life, lets himself be killed by an explosion rather than be saved by Batman. He had already been pretty badly injured by Blight, but his choice was more out of despair than any sense of inevitability.
* In the ''HappyTreeFriends'' episode "Wishy Washy", Petunia gets covered in dirt and due to her SuperOCD, she goes crazy and tries to find a way to clean off the dirt. But all the waterworks in her house were messed up before she lost it. When all the water she gets is dirty she resorts to finding something to scrub of the dirt. The last thing she gets is a potato peeler. She then ''peels off her own skin''. Wow.
* In an episode of ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDad'', one of Francine's friends sinks into a deep depression and Roger (disguised as a psychologist) offers this "helpful" advice: "You should totally kill yourself."
* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' sometimes has the bartender, Moe, attempt suicide, usually to be accidentally saved. Well, at least it used to be [[{{Flanderization}} sometimes]]. Frank Grimes, sadly, wasn't so lucky.
** Although with Frank it wasn't so much "driven to suicide" as "driven stark staring bonkers and unable to recognise that yes, electricity does kill you if you approach it the wrong way".
** The episode where the Simpsons had 25 puppies subverted this. When it turned out that the Simpsons' dogs were world champions, we see what looks to be Homer hanging himself. Marge is horrified, only for the scene to show he was just batting a lightbulb while hanging by his arm on the rafters.
** Similarly, in an episode parodying 24, driven to guilt from [[spoiler: acting as Jimbo's inside man]] Martin gets on a stool and is seen hanging when he knocks it over. A pull back of the camera shows he just wedgied himself.
** Moe's holiday tradition is trying to kill him self.
** Played [[DudeNotFunny disturbingly]] [[PlayedForDrama straight]] by Bart in "The Boys Of Bummer".
* Dinobot in ''{{Transformers}}: WesternAnimation/BeastWars'' is seen in his quarters, early in the episode "Code Of Hero", overcome by dishonor and holding his sword at his chest before tossing it aside in disgust. [[spoiler:Some fans view his HeroicSacrifice later in the episode as suicide, given the odds stacked against him and the fact that the other Maximals were already on their way. There's no clear answer here.]]
* Subverted horribly in ''WesternAnimation/AquaTeenHungerForce'' due to SnapBack.
** In "Video Ouiji", Shake killed himself so he could haunt Meatwad through a video game.
** In "dirtfoot", Shake killed himself so an old woman's top would dissapear. At least Frylock was happy...
* ''SouthPark'':
** "Something Wal-Mart This Way Comes": The owner of the local Wal-Mart faces an angry mob of townspeople fed up with its influence, nervously going back and forth between lauding its qualities and expressing his own negative yet defeated opinion of it. During the conversation he writes and shows a note telling the crowd to meet him outside. After then townspeople leave the office confused and disappointed, [[spoiler:the owner suddenly jumps through the window, hanging by a noose. Seconds later, [[NoDeadBodyPoops he craps his pants, proving Cartman right about the phenomenon]] to his satisfaction.]] The same thing happens later with [[spoiler:the founder of Wal-Mart, who shoots himself. And then [[RunningGag craps his pants]].]]
** "Die Hippie, Die": Mayor [=McDaniels=] shoots herself in the temple when [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone the hippie music festival she authorized turns South Park into the hippie capital of the world]].
** "Britney's New Look": Music/BritneySpears blows her head off... and lives. So, the cult which apparently everybody in the country belongs to decides they need to try harder. "It's gonna be a goooood harvest."
** "Night Of The Living Homeless": A man tries "to take the easy way out" by shooting himself. He shoots himself over and over again, destroying his body further, but not dying. This is also an example of CrossingTheLineTwice.
** "Elementary School Musical" Cartman tries to kill himself [[TakeThat after]] [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotHeinous watching]] the latest [[HypeBacklash "cool"]] movie, ''HighSchoolMusical''. Unfortunately, his mom drives a hybrid car, which doesn't produce enough carbon monoxide to do the job.
** "Cash For Gold": After discovering how his vulnerable, Alzheimer's-stricken grandfather was being screwed over, Stan repeatedly tells the host of a home shopping network to kill himself in an epic case of {{Deadpan Snark|er}}. [[spoiler:He finally does it, after getting the same calls from his former clients.]]
** In "Pinewood Derby", Mr. Hollis blows his brains out [[SeriousBusiness when his son loses a Pinewood Derby race]]
* Subverted in ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'': Neil pretends to be about to jump off of a building, but later he tells Meg that he wasn't going to jump, regardless of whether she tried to stop him.
* The members of Dethklok in ''{{Metalocalypse}}'' jokingly tell someone to kill himself. He does.
** Nathan Explosion believes all dentists are suicidal whackjobs. [[spoiler: He's right.]]
** ''All'' Dethklok fans might qualify, since they sign Pain Waivers absolving Dethklok from any responsibility for accidents, injuries and fatalities during their concerts.
*** But dude, Dethklok is f*cking ''metal''.
* In ''RobotChicken'', when fighting one of the Winged Monkeys in ''Film/TheWizardOfOz'', TheCrow gives him a depressingly nihilistic monologue that causes the monkey to just hang himself. Cue Crow wiping away a tear.
** The bloopers show host kills himself at the end of every segment he's in.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'':
** "Space Pilot 3000": Bender meets Fry while waiting in line to use a suicide booth, later revealing that [[GoMadFromTheRevelation discovering his primary function was to build the devices]] was what drove him to said decision.
** "How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back": Hermes threatens to jump off the Planet Express balcony after being demoted by the Central Bureaucracy.
** "Less Than Hero" ([[SubvertedTrope Subversion]]): Fry and Leela, having [[AppliedPhlebotinum gained superpowers]] earlier in the episode, are in the Mayor's office when he's trying to summon their superheroic alter egos. After Leela and Bender make up excuses to leave, Fry just yells, "And I just can't take life anymore!" and leaps out the window.
** "Ghost in the Machines": After Fry saves a paleontologist from a deadly parade float, Bender becomes so upset over Fry's [[WhatMeasureIsANonHuman choice of the human]] [[FantasticRacism over the robot]] that he threatens to kill himself, something he has [[CryingWolf done many times before]]. Only this time he [[CassandraTruth actually does it]].
** "Overclockwise": Fry decides, after Farnsworth gets arrested and Leela decides to [[TenMinuteRetirement leave Planet Express and move to another planet]], to kill himself by jumping down Niagra Falls in a barrel. It [[InterruptedSuicide doesn't quite work]], as it turns out.
* Many WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes cartoons feature characters offing themselves after seeing something particularly ridiculous. Occasionally, especially in TexAvery's cartoons, they ended with the ''main character shooting themself'', such as in ''Red Hot Riding Hood''. These scenes are [[WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids particularly shocking to modern audiences]], and [[{{Bowdlerized}} typically censored these days]] except in uncut releases.
** In ChuckJones' "Cheese Chasers", a pair of mice decide to [[SuicideByCop commit suicide-by-cat]] after having eaten themselves sick on cheese and decide that there's nothing left to live for since they'll never be able to enjoy cheese again. They only succeed in driving the ''cat'' to suicide as well.
* In ''TwiceUponATime'', the BigBad's lackey Scuzzbopper tries to hang himself after his boss throws out his manuscript for a "great A-Murk-ian novel", but he doesn't quite succeed. Fortunately, the heroes find him, talk him out of it, and [[HeelFaceTurn enlist his aid in thwarting the bad guys]].
* ''WesternAnimation/CodeLyoko'' features Aelita doing this in the final episode of season 2, but it was [[InterruptedSuicide stopped by Jeremie]]. Her motives here are complex and confusing, blending a bit of GoodbyeCruelWorld with HeroicSacrifice and MartyrWithoutACause. Yes, all of those apply.
* Bill Dauterive of ''KingOfTheHill'' had periodic bouts with depression turn so bad that he became suicidal especially on Christmas when this was the time his wife divorced him. Bill's suicide attempts were played seriously, but his neighbors' reactions to it were not. Hank was annoyed by having to take time off of work to go on "suicide watch", Dale didn't care if Bill died or not and was eager to steal his stuff, and Boomhauer was tired of it eating up so much of his time.
* One of {{Disney}}'s {{Wartime Cartoon}}s, ''The Old Army Game'', had DonaldDuck attempting to shoot himself after he believed he had been sawed in half.
* Though it's not called suicide, nor is [[NeverSayDie death even alluded]], the WonderfulLife episode of ''FairlyOddParents'' had Timmy eventually concluding that, since everyone's apparently happy in the world where he was never born, he should ''forfeit his own right to exist''. For clarity, this is a ''ten-year-old boy'' who comes to the depressed conclusion that he only causes misery in others so he should just accept being erased from existence. Sure, it's all a SecretTestOfCharacter, but the realization needed to "pass" the test was, for all intents and purposes, "[[FamilyUnfriendlyAesop my suicide will make everyone else happy]]."
* In ''Disney/TheLionKing 2'', If you thought it looked like Zira smiled during her fall, it's because she did. It was originally a suicide, but that did not make it past [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoctlRyGdf8 storyboard stage]], probably because it was considered too dark for a child friendly film.
* ''SpongeBobSquarePants'' had an episode involving Plankton attempting suicide due to Mr. Krabs's KnightTemplar tendencies. After an unsuccessful attempt he actually said "Can't you see I'm trying to get run over?" to Spongebob.
** Spongebob's bad breath made his reflection commit suicide by smashing the mirror with a hammer
*** In the same episode there are two fish who bite on a fishing hook to get reeled up.
** In the episode "Are you happy now?" when Squidward goes into a depression he sticks his head in the oven but is really taking brownies out. In another part he throws a rope with a loop in the end over the cieling but is really hoisting up a bird cage.
* You could make a drinking game out of all the references to suicide in ''BraveLittleToaster''. Within the first few minutes, Phil Hartman [[NightmareFuel violently]] [[BerserkButton self-destructs]]. Main characters routinely throw themselves [[LeapOfFaith off of cliffs]], deliberately onto high places during a [[LightningCanDoAnything heavy thunderstorm]], and into [[HeroicSacrifice certain death]]. (Although they were all for heroic purposes.) There's [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8kQDNLkT3c one scene]] in particular where a lone flower wilts and dies after realizing its isolated fate. There is a can opener/lamp/shaver character who ''strangles itself with its own cords onscreen'' for not knowing its purpose. By the end of the movie, there's a cast of ruined vehicles in a junkyard which sing about how they're [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqT2uOa1-d0 'worthless']], with themes of despair, regret, intolerance, and loneliness, one of them even ''willingly'' driving straight into a gigantic shredder to be [[NightmareFuel compressed into small metal cubes]]. Hey, it was [[TheEighties a different time]].
* [[spoiler: The BigBad of Season 1, Nox]] in ''WesternAnimation/{{Wakfu}}'', after he finds that even after slaughtering countless creatures for 200 years to power magic beyond the power of gods, even after performing said magic, that was said to most likely destroy the universe even if it worked at all, perfectly as intended, [[spoiler: and travelling back in time, so that he can save his family... all the reserves of power he stored in 200 years, allowed him to rewind time for only 20 minutes, meaning that both his family and victims of all but the latest of his genocides will stay dead. After that he just lies on the graves of his wife and children and lets the magic that kept him alive go, turning to dust and leaving only his armor and bandages behind]].
* In ''StarWarsTheCloneWars'', a Twi'lek slave, having failed to assassinate her master, leaps to her death rather than continue living as a slave.
** This is somewhat dark, considering that the show is meant for children.
* [[EvilTwin Spider]]-[[OmnicidalManiac Carnage]] at the end of ''SpiderManTheAnimatedSeries''. Completely insane and aware that he cannot drive the symbiote off of him, he hurls himself into an unstable vortex and disintegrates. Horrifyingly, this was probably best for everyone involved, [[WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds himself included]].
* In the season one finale of ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'', [[spoiler: Tarrlok realises [[HeelRealization what he's become]], and doesn't feel that he and his brother deserve freedom, [[RedemptionEqualsDeath and kills them both]].]] [[TearJerker One of the most poignant moments of the series.]]
** It's also very heavily implied that [[spoiler:Korra]] is contemplating it at the end of the season with her crying and looking over the edge of a cliff.
** In a ''far'' more [[PlayedForLaughs humourous]] use of the trope, Jinora tells a tale of a princess who discovered she could not be with her one true love, and so rode into battle on a dragon, burned down an entire country before jumping into a volcano. She feels this is the best way for Korra to deal with her own crush.
* In the episode "Princess Cookie" of ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'', this happens to a (male) cookie who realized he couldn't be a princess. The cookie held hostages to obtain the crown from [[EverythingsBetterWithPrincesses Princess]] [[AnthropomorphicFood Bubblegum]], which caused him to get in trouble. She sent guards after him, and rather than getting caught, he decided to purposefully and blissfully fall off a cliff. [[WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids Did we mention this was a kid's show?]]
